Carbonarea looked at his mother’s most loved
recipe. It was always a show stopper. The
Pope was in a secret meeting between the
ambassador from the alien invasion feet and one
or two heads of state.
“Pesto,”
said the Pope. “I need one of your best dips
for this meeting. I’m not sure what will
come of this but no matter we must save the Holy
Church and its people. I have our cooks working
on the best meals from each of their countries.
You’re a bit different. You combine
North America, South America and native America.
Please make me a great dip that we all can love.
Maybe they will take mercy upon us.”
Pesto
Carbonarea presented His Cranberry Salsa with
great flourish. It was perfect.

Pesto looked
at the recipe again, the spilled dip and the
alien ambassador dead on the floor. “Oh my
lord I’m so sorry I had no idea my dip would
kill it. Oh lord forgive me.” He was on his
knees crying.
The Pope, his
two military advisors-astronomers looked
down at the dead ambassador. General Medici asked,
“What did he say? Can anyone translate that?”
The American
president’s advisor looking up from his code
book said, “The best I can make out is,
“Shit, green spice food. They poisoned me.
How did they get to know our secrets.”
The
End
The salsa is really good. I'd add 2 peppers if
you like it real spicy.
